What Happened to Freedom Forever

Freedom Forever LLC, headquartered in Temecula, California, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Delaware on April 15, 2026 (Case 26-10522).

At the time of filing:

  • Estimated debt: $500 million to $1 billion
  • Estimated assets: $100 million to $500 million
  • Largest creditor: Mosaic Funding (~$120 million)
  • Systems installed: ~190,000 homes across 35 states, Puerto Rico, and Washington D.C.
  • Workforce: ~3,600 employees, many of whom received zero notice

In the weeks before the filing, the Texas Attorney General named Freedom Forever in a "major initiative" to crack down on solar companies engaged in fraudulent and deceptive practices.

Customers reported canceled service appointments, dropped warranty claims, and being unable to reach anyone at the company. Many had repairs scheduled the same week the bankruptcy was filed.

Why This Hits Hard Locally

Freedom Forever was based in Temecula. While they operated nationally, a meaningful share of their customers are right here in Southwest Riverside County. ElectriCare has been installing solar in this same region since 2000 — same family, same license, same phone number. We're not going anywhere.

What's Still Covered (And What Isn't)

Headlines may say "all warranties are void." That's only partly true. The equipment warranties are separate from Freedom Forever's company warranties.

Still Covered

  • Solar panels — manufacturer warranty (typically 25 years) honored directly by REC, JA Solar, Trina, Q CELLS, etc.
  • Microinverters — Enphase honors all 25-year warranties regardless of installer status
  • String inverters — SolarEdge, Fronius, SMA honor 10–12 year product warranties directly
  • Batteries — Tesla, Enphase, Franklin honor product warranties directly

No Longer Covered

  • Freedom Forever workmanship warranty — at risk in the bankruptcy proceedings
  • Freedom Forever production guarantee — likely void or significantly reduced
  • Repair labor — manufacturers cover the part, but you pay for installation labor

Lease, PPA & Financed Customers

If you have a lease or PPA with Freedom Forever, your contract is an asset that the bankruptcy court will likely sell to a new service provider. The new owner typically continues the contract. You should still receive service — if you're not, document everything and consider filing a complaint with the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB).

If you financed through Mosaic, GoodLeap, or Sunlight Financial, the FTC Holder Rule may give you legal protections. Talk to a consumer attorney before continuing payments on a non-functioning system.

How ElectriCare Helps Freedom Forever Customers

Six concrete things we do for customers stranded by Freedom Forever's closure.

← Back to all orphan solar help

Free Inspection

We come out, inspect the system, identify your equipment, and document its current condition. No charge for the visual assessment.

Incomplete Install Completion

If Freedom Forever started but didn't finish your system, we can quote the completion work separately and get you producing.

Warranty Claims

We pull serial numbers, confirm what's covered with each manufacturer, and file claims directly. Most claims require a certified installer.

Monitoring Reconnection

Freedom Forever's customer portal is unreliable. We reconnect to native manufacturer monitoring (Enphase, SolarEdge, Tesla).

Repair & Replace

Failed inverter, microinverter, or battery? We diagnose, source warranty replacements, and install with our in-house electricians.

Truly Local

Murrieta-based since 2000. CSLB #778366. Same family ownership. Freedom Forever was local too — but we'll still be here in 10 years.

Freedom Forever Customer Questions

The most common questions from Freedom Forever customers reaching out to us.

My Freedom Forever install isn't finished. What do I do?

Document everything (contracts, payments made, work completed). File a claim with the bankruptcy court — Case 26-10522, U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. You may also have rights under the FTC Holder Rule if you financed through a third party. ElectriCare can quote completion of the install separately.

My system stopped working. Should I wait?

No. Most equipment is still under manufacturer warranty, but warranty claims require a certified installer to file them. Waiting just means more time without your system producing. Schedule an inspection.

I had a service appointment that was canceled. Will Freedom Forever reschedule?

Almost certainly not. Recent customer reports indicate Freedom Forever has stopped responding to service requests. ElectriCare can take over service.

How much will it cost me to switch service providers?

A free inspection identifies what's covered under warranty (panels, microinverters, inverter, battery) and what's out of pocket (labor, anything not covered). We quote everything upfront. No surprises.

Will my warranty transfer if Freedom Forever's assets are sold?

Possibly. Watch the bankruptcy proceedings. But don't wait for that — manufacturer warranties on the equipment itself are independent of who installed your system.

Is ElectriCare actually local? Or another national company?

ElectriCare has been a family-owned California business since 2000, based in Murrieta. CSLB License #778366. Same family, same license, same phone number for 26 years. We're as local as it gets in Southwest Riverside County.

Sources & Coverage

ElectriCare is independent and unaffiliated with Freedom Forever LLC. Information current as of page publication; bankruptcy proceedings (Case 26-10522, U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware) are ongoing.
